"Isn't that wrong? If they don't want to, that's fine, but drugging them is a bit animalistic." The person who said this seemed to still have a conscience.

"What's wrong with that? You'll get used to it once you've had sex with her. We've done this before. We'll find an opportunity to ask her out. I don't believe she won't get addicted after we've slept with her!" This guy with the lewd voice is definitely a shameless scoundrel.

The best thing to do is to find a way to make this kind of person a eunuch; that would be very satisfying.

"Oh right! This is the competition for that innocent girl. She's probably starting her performance now," someone suddenly said.

"Then let's hurry back and take a look. We haven't seen what it looks like yet. Let's see if it's really pure."

Then, after a sound like a dam bursting, the people rushed out.

After these guys stirred things up, Liang Liang completely forgot what he was doing squatting there.

It seems like they didn't do anything, just squatted down and listened to the sounds.

After washing her hands in the restroom, Liang Liang returned to the studio.

At this moment on stage, the male singer who had competed against Zhang Liyuan had finished his performance!

Now it's Jang Ri-won's turn to perform on stage.

The song she sang was "Legend".

Zhang Liyuan sang "Crazy for Love" in the first round, "A Damp Heart" in the second round, and "Loving You Ten Points, Tears Seven Points" in the third round.

Zhang Liyuan's progress is obvious. The nervousness she felt when she first appeared on stage has disappeared, replaced by a lot more confidence.

With confidence in her heart, her singing naturally became full and fluent, and she sang "Legend" as if it were heavenly music.

While listening to Zhang Liyuan's performance, Liang Liang glanced sideways at the members of the Broken Dream Band and the One Point Band, who were gesturing and pointing at the stage.

I wonder what shady things these guys are whispering about again.

After Zhang Liyuan finished singing, the audience erupted in applause.

Next, the judges started spouting nonsense.

But even though the judges were just rambling on today, he found it quite pleasant to listen to.

Judge 1: Ethereal and ethereal, truly heavenly music;

Judge 2: Her voice seemed to come from both the sky and the sea of ​​her heart; it was indescribable.

The first two judges played a game of empty rhetoric, but the third judge finally brought something substantial to the table.

Judge 3: I noticed this young lady from the very first round. Her voice is quite unique, very soft, and her performances got better with each round. She was a bit awkward and nervous in the first three rounds, but none of that happened in this round.

Judge 4: Teacher Tan is right. She performed exceptionally well this time. It can be said that she brought the song "Legend" to life perfectly.

Judge Five: ...

Judge Six: ...

Almost every judge praised Zhang Liyuan's singing.

When he arrived at Zheng Guanglan's place, he didn't say anything, but the genuine smile on his face said it all.

The next step is the voting stage.

The outcome of the vote was almost a foregone conclusion from the very beginning. Of the 500 audience members who went on stage to vote, six or seven out of ten voted for Zhang Liyuan.

At this rate, the votes of those ten judges are no longer of any use.

This was the first time Liang Liang had watched Zhang Liyuan's vote without feeling anxious; it was so smooth and reassuring.

As expected, Zhang Liyuan received 307 out of 500 votes from 500 audience members.

Even if all ten judges cast their votes for her opponent, she would only receive 293 votes.

She won solely based on the audience's votes.

She ultimately received the highest number of votes to date: 407 votes.

"Sister Liyuan! You performed exceptionally well today, practically flawless. If you perform like this in the next two songs, getting into the top three won't be a problem." Liang Liang gave a fair evaluation of Zhang Liyuan after her performance.

Zhang Liyuan was also very excited. Today, she experienced for the first time on stage the kind of selfless state that Liang Liang had described.

As she sang, she entered a magical state.

In this environment, there is no sky, no earth, no stage, and not even oneself; the only sound in the world is the song echoing everywhere.

This state is so wonderful.

"Xiao Liang! I just got into the state you described on stage."

Liang Liang was a little confused: "What's wrong?"

"You mean that kind of selfless state? Didn't you say that in that state there is no sky, no earth, no self, not even the world, only sound?"

"Ah! You really felt it?" Liang Liang's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

"I really felt it, and that feeling was wonderful!"

Liang Liang was dumbfounded. "That was just me bluffing you! It's the same as teasing you, and you actually went in?"

Who can I reason with about this?

The state of selflessness truly exists, but the kind of selflessness that Liang Liang described does not exist.

How could a world exist if there was nothing at all?

"Your ability to reach that level shows that you have an exceptionally strong understanding of music. I can confidently guarantee that there are no more than five people in the world who can reach that level. It seems that your future achievements in music are immeasurable."

Liang Liang was talking nonsense with a straight face.

This is truly immeasurable. She even brought to life something you just casually mentioned. How can you possibly measure it?

At that moment, a long-haired young man crouched down and approached the Blue Shark band.

"Hey girl! You sang so well just now, can I treat you to dinner?"

Liang Liang immediately recognized the voice as that of the lewd man.

"Get lost!" Liang Liang said without any politeness.

"Hey, how can you talk like that? I just admire this girl's singing and wanted to get to know her. You're being rude!" The other person was actually unhappy.

"I was just squatting in the toilet, and you're talking to me about manners? Get out! Get out right now!"

The sleazy man finally understood what was going on, and turned to leave without saying a word.

"Walnut! Why do you look so dejected on your way back?"

"Damn it, we were talking in the bathroom just now, and that short-haired guy from the Blue Shark band overheard us and he yelled at me." The sleazy guy's real name was He Tao, but in the band they all called him Walnut.

He also has a nickname, *****, but it's generally not mentioned in formal settings.

The members of the Broken Dreams Band and the One Point Band were taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Damn it, unless this kid doesn't go to the capital, if I see him there, he'll be in big trouble."

While He Tao was raging over there, the Blue Shark men surrounded Liang Liang, asking him why.

The person came over but didn't say anything, and he just told them to get lost. There must be some reason for that.

Liang Liang couldn't figure it out either; some of the things he overheard in the toilet were things he couldn't say.

"Don't ask anymore. Just stay away from those two bands from now on. And Sister Liyuan, don't talk to anyone in the bands, especially that guy I just yelled at and chased away. He's no good."

Zhang Liyuan nodded: "I've remembered, and I promise I won't have any contact with them."
